Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons Finely Chopped Mixed Fresh Herbs, including Parsley, Chives, Basil, Oregano, and/or Tarragon Leaves
  • 1 clove Garlic minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 8 tablespoons Salted Butter (1 stick), at room temperature

Cooking Instructions

Place the herbs, garlic, pepper, and butter in a small mixing bowl and beat with a wooden spoon until light and fluffy. Alternatively, you can do the beating in a mixer or food processor.

Lay a 12-inch-square piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper on your work surface and mound the flavored butter in the center.

Roll it up into a cylinder, tiwsting the ends to compact the butter.

Chill the butter in the refrigerator or freezer until firm.

The flavored butter will keep for up to 5 days in the refrigerator or up to 3 months in the freezer. To use, unwrap the roll and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch slices.

    Garlic and grilling go together like smoke and fire. I like to tuck disks of this garlicky butter into hamburgers; they will ooze when you take a bite. It is also delicious brushed on grilled bread, shellfish, fish steaks of all sorts, lamb and beef kebabs--in short, just about anything.
